Whew. Where does the time go? It has been over a month since I have updated this blog. Thanks for all of the kind emails checking in on me! I have not been crushed or eaten by my 4 boys!

Turner, Trevan and I just returned from a wonderful weekend in Sonoma. We got the pleasure of attending Siblings Weekend at Chloe's College - SSU. We pretended that the boys were her cousins. It was beautiful up there and very relaxing. My boys had a blast and flying on an airplane to get there was a special treat. Trevan asked 1001 questions from "What is that noise" to "How long do the flyers of the plane have to go to school to learn how to fly?" He was quite observant and did not let anything get past his inquisitive mind. Turner on the other hand just kicked his seat back and laughed at the cartoons on the video screen. Not a care in the world...that is him!

We were not sure we could go as everyone in the house got a round of the flu the week before we were to depart. Kids missed school, mom spent many a night up changing the sheets and patting backs as kids got sick over the commode. Oh! The joys of motherhood.

Thank the Lord they got well...and I did not get it! We did have to haul the breathing machine to Sonoma with us as Turner's asthma has kicked up again. Not as bad as last year thank goodness!

Stace, Trenton and Taylor survived the weekend and I came home to a clean house which was a surprise!

Taylor is doing well for the most part. He is applying for jobs which has not been fruitful as yet. Trenton is doing well at his new school {thank goodness or he was getting all that hair chopped off!}

I have been very busy with my photography and just finished rebuilding my website today. I have to add some polish and change a few things but am pleased with my new look for 2011. I am still learning my Nikon and am loving it! My calendar is filling up with lots of appointments and I couldn't be happier for the opportunity to use my new gear. I have my eye on a couple lenses that I am going to be saving up for.

Soon my mom and I will be departing for our trip together. I look forward to spending some quality time with my mom. We are cruising to Mexico for my Birthday! Ahhhh the peace and quiet...what will I do??

Well... that is that in a nutshell. I am alive and kickin' - just busy! Thanks again for checkin in with me!
